The Ceasefire Centre for Civilian Rights promotes civilian-led monitoring of violations of human rights and international humanitarian law (www.ceasefire.org ) As part of a former EU-funded project, it has developed and operates an online platform for the reporting of violations in Iraq. This enables reporting using an online form, as well as the submission of reports in other formats, in both English and Arabic, using the Ushahidi platform. See iraq.ceasefire.org

As part of a new EIDHR project on strengthening human rights defender organisations working with vulnerable civilians, the Ceasefire Centre is now inviting tenders for the deployment and maintenance of a similar human rights reporting platform for another separate country in the region, either using the Ushahidi platform or similar open source software.
